Dutch Harbor, Unalaska, AK. 2017
I've been trying out the Portrait mode with the iPhone7+ on a variety of subjects. It's not tailored for candid style portraits where the subject is moving, but if you find some nice light and want that bokeh, it can provide some really nice results.
#Bokeh is Japanese for 'blurry' but it is similar to the word Dim in how it means low light but also, 'not too bright'. Bokeh means blurry but it also means 'not too sharp'. If you catch my drift. .

"The Bite"

I sat there for several moments, maybe a minute or two. Slowly, like my grandfather in his last days, I picked myself up, hobbled to another edge that could support my weight and waited—waited for the pain to subside, waited for the desire to move again, waited it out. I questioned a lot of things propped up there. Like, What the hell am I doing here?
